Mindful Eating - for better health

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is "a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique".

Mindful Eating

Mindful eating is eating with pleasure. It involves intention to eat, attention on the food, feeling each bite.

The mindful eating helps:

  • to bring awareness of physical and emotional triggers for needing food
  • to recognise feeling of satiety
  • to enjoy food
  • to select more nutritious food

Mindful eating is a powerful tool for discovering a healthier, happier relationship with food.
